Chapter 1 Growth
"Brother, brother, what is the Heavenly Sword?" A toddler about three years old innocently asked his brother questions as if he had a hundred thousand whys, and asked his all-knowing brother the question he had just heard from elsewhere.
"The Heavenly Sword is a very powerful sword..."
The elder brother looked at his younger brother with pity on his face, and gently wiped the stains off his brother's face with his hands. He replied very softly. The elder brother looks about the same age as the younger brother, but it gives people a very mature and sensible feeling.
"Oh, and how powerful is it? Then why is our Xiao family looking for it? Is there a brother who is powerful? ”
The elder brother smiled and said, "This can't be compared, because I haven't seen it either." However, the Heavenly Sword hides a big secret, and the ancestor of our Xiao family is also one of the Heavenly Sword Forgers, so we will look for the Heavenly Sword. ”
The younger brother was still a little puzzled: "Then why haven't you found it yet?" Dad goes out every day, is he going to look for Heavenly Sword? But wasn't Dad giving my brother the Heavenly Sword? ”
"What Dad gave to my brother is not the Heavenly Sword, but the Five Heavenly Sword, and it is only one of them. There are also four pieces, and only by finding all the five lords of the Heavenly Sword can you find the Heavenly Sword. ”
As the elder brother spoke, he took off a longevity lock around his neck: "The Five Lords of the Heavenly Sword are hidden here, Xiao Ting must remember it." You come and touch it first, and then my brother will help you put it on..."
Xiao Ting was very obedient, his little face was serious, and his hands were also seriously touching the longevity lock that his brother had placed in his hands, carefully touching every line on the longevity lock, over and over again.
………
Xiao Ting, who was already five years old, cried very sadly: "Brother... Brother, the Heavenly Sword Five Lords you gave me are gone...."
The elder brother looked at the younger brother who stumbled in, covered in dirty and small appearance, how pitiful and pitiful he was, hurriedly ran up and hugged him, and said softly: "Don't worry, Xiaoting, don't worry, tell my brother what's wrong with you..."
"The Five Lords of the Heavenly Sword... Gone, I was just in the yard... When I was tired of playing with the sword, I sat down... After resting for a while, accidentally... I fell asleep, and when I woke up, I couldn't find it everywhere......" After saying that, there was another burst of crying.
The elder brother looked at his younger brother's dirty little hands, and was very distressed: "Don't worry, don't worry, my brother will go and get it back for you immediately." ”
………..
"I found it, come and put it on for you."
"Brother, am I useless."
"How can it be, Xiao Ting is very powerful, how can he find his brother in hide and seek, how can he not be powerful."
Xiao Ting turned crying into laughter.
"Xiao Ting must remember that crying will not solve the problem. Don't panic when something happens, calm down and think carefully. It's like when you hide and seek for your brother, you'll always find it. Things will always work out. If you are in a hurry, then you can't solve it. Got it? The elder brother said as he helped the younger brother wipe away his tears.
Xiao Ting nodded heavily: "Well, I know my brother." ”
"And what about the next time we have something?"
"Don't panic, don't be in a hurry, and think calmly when you encounter things."
"Xiao Ting is awesome..."
…………
Six-year-old Xiao Ting is no longer so crying, but he is still very sad today.
In front of his brother, he finally couldn't hold back and cried: "Brother, why don't they play with me, and say that I am a little blind man..."
The elder brother froze for a moment, and then began to coax the younger brother again.
In the end, after coaxing Xiao Ting and sending him away, his brother's face immediately sank.
"Let's check, what's going on?"
From the shade of a tree not far from him, a man suddenly appeared, wearing a hat and a black cloak, bowed down and said, "Yes! ”
"Children are not sensible, but adults cannot be unruly. This time warn, and there will be a next time, no matter who it is, someone will chew the root of the tongue again, abolish it, and expel all of them from Xiaojiabao. ”
"Got it, Young Master Fan."
…….
"Brother, you're looking for me!"
Looking at his eight-year-old brother, Young Master Fan said, "Xiao Ting, there is someone who introduces you to you today. Lan Gang! ”
There is also a child standing next to Young Master Fan, judging from his height, he is also about eight or nine years old, but unfortunately his face is sad, giving people the feeling of being a few years older.
Lan Gang heard Young Master Fan shouting, stepped up, and said, "Here!" ”
"Xiao Ting, Lan Gang is the eldest son of the Lan family's generation, and he is also the best among his peers. In the future, Lan Gang will accompany you to practice, and he will be your sparring partner in the future. Lan Gang, this is my younger brother, Xiao Ting, you will accompany him to practice in the future. ”
Xiao Ting, who is already eight years old, is already very sensible. He knew the Lan family, so he didn't object, nodded and said, "Got it, brother." ”
Then he said to Lan Gang: "Lan Gang, hello! ”
Lan Gang also said, "Hello, Young Master Ting! ”
…….
"Lan Gang, in the future, you will not only be Xiao Ting's sparring partner, you will also be his eyes, his guard, protect him, you know?"
"I know, Young Master Fan, I will fight with my life to protect Young Master Ting."
When there were only Xiao Fan and Lan Gang, Xiao Fan explained some things.
…….
"Xiaoting, this is the inkstone, and the inkstone will be your scholar and your personal guard in the future."
When Xiao Ting was ten years old, Xiao Fan arranged a little scholar beside him, Yantai.
As time passed, the brothers grew older.
Xiao Ting's side gradually had Lan Gang and Yantai, but Xiao Fan spent less and less time with him until he ......
When the brothers were thirteen years old, Xiao Ye returned from Jiangnan. It was a rotten drunkard who sent him back, and he brought a little girl with him.
Xiao Ye, the father of the brothers, didn't return home for three years as soon as they went out when they were ten years old, who knew that this time they came back, it would be bad news.
Because, it was a corpse that was sent back.
Xiao Ye's body was transported back by the drunkard surnamed Huang, and the corpse was already decomposed, and at a glance, he knew that it was not a recent accident. At least for a while, too. No wonder there has been no news in recent months.
This time it wasn't business as usual, although people were back. But it was a corpse.
Xiao Ting is now very sensible, and he knows what death represents. This means that there is one less loved one in the world who loves him. Xiao Ye can no longer bring him some small gifts and some delicious food when he comes back, as he did before. Not anymore.
He was in pain, but he didn't know where it hurt, and he wanted to cry, but he couldn't. The whole person is numb. Stupid in general.
Then the drunkard surnamed Huang also fell down on the day he sent Xiao Ye back, and within two days, he also passed away, leaving only a little girl who was only eight years old.
